You can vote and return your ballot as soon as you receive it. Returning your ballot early allows time to correct any issues with your signature so we can count your ballot. You can return your ballot by mail or to a
ballot drop box.

Ballot drop boxes

By mail

Put a first-class stamp on your ballot and mail it back to us. Your ballot must be postmarked by election day. Don’t wait until the last minute!

Email/fax and by mail

Returning your ballot packet materials electronically only ensures that your ballot packet materials are received prior to the 8 p.m. (PT) deadline on Election Day. You must still return your original printed ballot packet by 4:30 p.m. (PT), February 22. If we don’t receive your printed ballot packet, your ballot will not be accepted.

Email your ballot packet as an attachment to return.ballot@kingcounty.gov. You can take a clear and legible picture of your ballot packet pages with a digital camera or smart phone. Do not send a link. File size cannot be larger than 10 MB.
